How To Help Coral Reefs

Conservation Innovations

  • Coral Farming: Scientists are cultivating resilient coral species in controlled environments before transplanting them to damaged reefs.
  • Cold Water Injections: Innovative technology is being used to pump cooler water onto reefs during heat waves to prevent coral bleaching.
  • Genetic Research: Identifying heat-resistant coral genes to help develop more climate-resilient coral varieties.
  • 3D Printed Reefs: Creating artificial reef structures that provide a foundation for new coral growth.

What You Can Do Today

  • Use reef-safe sunscreen that doesn't contain harmful chemicals like oxybenzone.
  • Reduce your carbon footprint by conserving energy and choosing renewable energy sources.
  • Avoid purchasing coral jewelry or decorative items made from real coral.
  • If you're a diver or snorkeler, practice responsible reef etiquette - don't touch or stand on corals.
  • Reduce plastic use and properly dispose of trash to prevent marine pollution.
  • Support sustainable fishing practices and avoid consuming reef fish species.
